Very nice indeed :biggrin:. No wonder you're proud of the Wilier.

There seems to be a couple of problems though:-

i) Chain not on large chain ring on Wilier
ii) Valves not at bottom of wheels.

Not my rules :becool:.

(I wouldn't have noticed or cared but someone mentioned it elsewhere :biggrin:).

Well spotted :biggrin:

Nice bikes indeed. :biggrin:
Your Zonda's really suit the bike. You just need my nice Shimano shoes to compliment the colour scheme of your bike now.:biggrin:

Nice bikes. My Wilier is being delivered on Wednesday - I can't wait!!!!:evil:


Which model are you getting? What I like about mine is apart from the obvious stuff, full carbon frame etc, lovely Campy Groupset, is that I haven't seen another one around, oh, apart from last years White Horse Challenge, when a guy cycled up beside me and said "nice bike mate" when I looked to see what he was riding and to return the compliment, I noticed he was on a Wilier Mortirolo too!
 
I'm getting the Iozard Pro. Campy Centaur gruppo and lovely Fulcrum Racing 3 wheels. I've had to buy 'her indoors' new flooring for the kitchen to pacify her

Very nice too, you'll love it. I had to sign a contract stipulating that I wouldn't upgrade or buy another bike. I have already changed the OE
wheels(Fulcrum R7's) for the Zondas it currently sits on...Oh well :evil:

Like computer upgrades, in my experience, bike upgrades are easy to get past the other half. Unless I resprayed the frame a different colour she'd never notice!

Actually, she's always been very good and let me get most of the things I need/want :evil:

Love the Wilier Mortirolo. It's almost worth getting one just for the name.

Strictly speaking I was able to slip the wheels in under the wire, as they were funded by birthday money.

Yes, the name is another point, it just sounds great doesn't it?! I love the Italian connection too.

There is also a touch of irony, those who know me will confirm that my climbing ability still has room for improvement.

As you'll all know,The Mortirolo is a monster of a climb often included in the Giro, which I am unlikely to ever tackle, but we can all dream.

Hopefully, <fingers cossed> is the Giant SCR in its final incarnation, complete with Campag Veloce Groupset and Fulcrum R7's. The fulcrums came off my Wilier, the Groupset from Merlin Cycles.
